The North Lookout Pavilion is the highest point on Cheung Chau. Below it, the turquoise waters of Tung Wan glisten beautifully in the distance. Do your soul a favour and climb up here around sunset, when the entire view is bathed in orange and gold, and the hustle and bustle of Asia’s world city seems far away. After that, show your stomach some kindness and head down to Pak She Praya Road for some energising local seafood fare.
